http://www.axtora.com/homesites/us/wisconsin/mount-hope/content/7270247e2bd3592a1c258ef65047a381.html MILWAUKEE As far as his coach is concerned it's a shame that Jayme Wells' football career is coming to an endBut what a way to go out Wells scored three touchdowns three different ways rushing receiving and on a kickoff return as Kimberly beat Verona 2814 to repeat as WIAA Division 2 state champions FridayI'm not going to play college football so that was the last time I was going to put on my shoulder pads and jersey Wells said I wanted it to be something specialIt wasWells' big game capped a remarkable season on both sides of the ball he's also a shutdown cornerback who doesn't shy away from press coverage earning him The Associated Press' 2008 Wisconsin state football player of the year awardNorthwest Wisconsin got a trio of players on the first team with Chippewa Falls McDonell offensive lineman Nate Dahl Ladysmith defensive lineman Zach Anderson and Chippewa Falls punter Cole Zwiefelhofer all making the squad OwenWithee senior running back Zack Pomputis earned a place on the AP second teamRiver Falls running back Levi Johnson Elmwood linebacker Steven Pax Chetek linebacker Jake Frazier Chippewa Falls defensive back Mitch Olson and Hudson defensive end Seth Stanchik all earned honorable mention accoladesWells' coach Steve Jorgensen made it an allKimberly sweep by taking AP coach of the year honorsBoth selections were made by a statewide panel of media members Jorgensen who took over as Kimberly's coach in 2004 after an 09 season now has orchestrated two straight 140 seasons and backtoback state titles But he said the credit should go to his assistant coaches and playersI accept that as a program award Jorgensen saidJorgensen earned the honor over fellow nominees Dave Keel of Homestead Tom Aldrich of Burlington Catholic Central Dave Richardson of Verona and Stratford's Cal TackesOther standout players who earned consideration for player of the year honors were Homestead defensive tackle Shelby Harris Racine Horlick quarterback Steve Morris and Walworth Big Foot lineman Travis FrederickWells had 48 catches for 1061 yards with 23 total touchdowns including special teams He also had four interceptions as a defensive back And imagine how good he could have been if Kimberly had been caught in a few more competitive gamesEleven of the Papermakers' 14 games were so lopsided that they ended up going to a running clock essentially a mercy rule costing Wells more chances to make big plays What kind of stats could he have piled up in 14 fulllength gamesIt would have been incredible because his speed is off the charts Jorgensen saidJorgensen said coaches have clocked him at 439 in the 40yard dash But from here on out it'll be the 90foot dash that matters most to WellsAlso a standout shortstop Wells is headed to Northern Illinois to play baseball next yearJorgensen tried to get Wells a shot at playing football in the Big Ten sending highlight tapes to Wisconsin Iowa Minnesota Northwestern and Michigan State Some expressed interest in Jorgensen as a walkon but nothing beyond that I think a lot of our Big Ten schools dropped the ball on this kid and I think they're finding out now Jorgensen saidAnd Jorgensen added especially the local program meaning WisconsinIf the lack of interest from Big Ten schools ever bothered Wells it since has fadedIt doesn't now Wells said I think it would have been niceBesides Wells says he prefers playing baseball to football NIU also offered Wells a football scholarship about half an hour after their football coaches got their first look at him at a summer camp but he has decided to concentrate on baseballBut at least Wells can leave football behind knowing that he left everything he had on the field in his final game And so can his teammates They wanted to play playoff football with one goal in mind Jorgensen said And it was not to get to Camp Randall it was to win itIn fact the Papermakers were so focused on repeating at state that they didn't really seem to enjoy the wins they piled up along the way When they clinched their conference championship they didn't even really celebrateIt almost wasn't right Jorgensen saidJorgensen recalled his conversation a year ago with Arrowhead coach Tom Taraska who offered advice on coping with the difficulties a team can have under the pressure of trying to repeatHe said to me 'You will not smile as a team until you win that game' Jorgensen said And we won that game now we can wear that smile foreverQuarterbackFirst
